Delta 31-483 Heavy-Duty Oscillating Bench Spindle Sander

We want to pass on our savings to our customers, so we've lowered the price of this item. However, since our price is now below the manufacturer's suggested retail price, we are restricted by the manufacturer from showing the price right away.

I use this machine for furniture making and guitar building in my small shop. I had to replace a similar size machine made by a competitor that broke and the parts are not available. I went with Delta because I have always had good luck getting replacement parts for their tools.

This machine saves me hours of sanding! The right tool for the job and let the tool do the work. This thing is really heavy duty and will not move around on the table. The table came unadjusted to 90 degrees and was a little difficult to get it perfect due to the set bolt location.

A great machine from Delta. I use it daily and it gets the job done. Super heavy and no vibration, doesn't move an inch. Changing the spindles takes a little getting used to with tight quarters for wrenches and remembering rightie loosie leftie tightie. The base was a little bent probably from shipping, the box had seen better days, but no damage to the motor or table. Nothing to get "bent" over, just flipped it over and lightly hammered it straight. I would recommend this to anyone looking for medium work, however next time I would have spent $100 more to get the JET.

First I'd like to commend CPO on their procedures and customer service for handling returns. I recently purchased a Delta 31-483 oscillating spindle sander. Upon removing it from the shipping carton it was obvious that the unit was severely damaged; the lower metal housing was crushed on one side as if caused by excessive force from the top. As a result, the upper table was mis-aligned with the spindle axis, rendering the tool unusable. CPO was very efficient in accepting a return and offered me the choice of return payment or a replacement tool. I chose a replacement 31-483. The second unit arrived shortly after the first one was returned. Upon removing the the sander from the shipping carton it was again obvious that this unit had the same damage as the first. One might conclude at this point that the problem may not be in shipping and handling but perhaps in the manufacturing process. I chose not to order a third sander and CPO returned the payment. I suggested that CPO look into the issue with Delta.
